\"Why<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Spreadshop<\/a> is the best platform for all your merch needs. We\u2019re a print on-demand platform, which means we do all the heavy lifting. YOU upload the designs; WE take care of the orders.<\/span><\/p>\n

The signup process literally takes seconds. Where you take your shop from there is up to you. Choose the type of merch products and styles you want to sell. Decide on the placement of your designs. The best part: you get a portion of the sales!<\/span><\/p>\n

In case you needed any more convincing, we break down why Spreadshop<\/a> is the best platform in the merch game.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Start Selling<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Start Selling<\/h2>\n

Start selling your merch in minutes thanks to our speedy signup form. Pick a shop name (don\u2019t worry you can always change it later). <\/span>All you have to do after that is enter your email, pick a password and you\u2019re in! We don\u2019t ask your birth certificate to open up a shop. Once you breeze through the signup, you have a customizable site at your disposal.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Pick a theme with a layout best suited for your merch. Add personal touches by linking to your socials and telling potential customers your story. These tweaks are going to show you are invested in your brand. Even if your merch is just a side hustle, you should still have a site that best reflects the work you put into it.<\/span><\/p>\n

We also recommend adjusting the features of your Spreadshop<\/a> every now and then. Feature your latest designs in a prominent area, like the home page. Put relevant merch items up front depending on the season. This is going to keep your shop fresh and your customers invested!<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Monthly Earnings<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Monthly Earnings<\/h2>\n

You mean to tell me you can earn money with your merch? And Spreadshop<\/a> even allows you to set your own prices.<\/span><\/p>\n

We set a base price for every item in order to make a profit, but anything you set above that goes directly to you. Keep in mind what your customers expect and are willing to pay for. We don\u2019t recommend overpricing things just because you can. $25 to $30 is standard for a t-shirt, just like $15 is standard for a coffee mug.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can adjust these prices whenever you want to run a sale. But, did you know: we have <\/span>promos<\/a><\/strong> every month? Discount offers from 10 to 20 percent are common at some point during the month. Remind your followers about these savings on your socials ahead of time.<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll get paid every month depending on what you sell during that time frame. What you did with this money is up to you. Reinvest it in your shop, make a splurge purchase, etc. Keep up to date with your shop earnings by downloading the Spreadshop app: <\/span>SpreadApp<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Easy Design Upload<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Easy Design Upload<\/h2>\n

We make it easy to upload your merch designs and even recommend the best dimensions and file types so your designs look their best.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>resolution<\/a><\/strong> of your designs should be at least 1000 pixels on the shorter side, and 4000 pixels on the longer side. You can upload your designs in different file types like JPG and PNG. If your design has a transparent background, PNGs are the only files that support that feature.<\/span><\/p>\n

Browse for the files in your library or drag and drop them into the designs tab of your shop. Once your design pops up, you can start to put it on merch and customize the fit for each item in your Spreadshop<\/a>. Make it larger on t-shirts and hoodies, and smaller on mugs and stickers. Placement is up to you!<\/span><\/p>\n

Not a graphic designer? No worries. There are plenty of easy-to-use tools that will get you print-ready designs. Make designs for FREE from <\/span>your phone <\/a><\/strong>and avoid Photoshop with comparable options at <\/span>no cost<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
Build Your Merch Line<\/picture><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Build Your Merch Line<\/h2>\n

We have an extensive range of <\/span>products<\/a><\/strong> that you can put your designs on. Activate designs in the backend of your shop and choose where they live based on categories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our apparel options come in a wide range of colors. If you want to give your customers the freedom to choose, leave all the options on. But if you want to be more selective and keep with an aesthetic for your shop, activate a select few. You tailor the shopping experience to your liking.<\/span><\/p>\n

As mentioned before, it\u2019s important to cater to the seasons with different merch styles. Make sure hoodies and long sleeve options are prominently promoted in the colder months. Same for tank tops and water bottles during the summer. We even have <\/span>exclusive merch<\/a><\/strong> available during the Holiday season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spreadshop<\/a> is the best platform for your merch because it\u2019s easy-to-use and gives shop owners flexibility for their merch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
